"The answering service girl was very nice but the process was kinda annoying. I could have called 5 + people by the time I was able to get one recommendation through this company. My job involves time sensitivity and this business did not help. Again the girl that helped me did all she could and was super polite. Thanks for your concern. Please take me off the email list. Thank you."

"My experience with Matrix Restoration was phenomenal. Daniel is truly a professional in this field. Living in Florida, you hear about the horrors of mold but never take it seriously, until your home is impacted by it. If you’re online searching for mold remediation, then I am talking to you. Don’t waste your money or time with other companies. Getting rid of mold is not an easy task. I spent a lot of money with wrong companies and got nowhere. Bottom line, if you want to save your home and belongings - this is the company to call. Daniel and his team are true professionals. He’s intelligent, punctual, reliable, thorough, honest and a complete Pro. Highly recommend Matrix Restoration. A+ Bolivar J"

"I needed to find a mold-remediation company to get rid of mold inside a hallway closet, so I decided to use Home Advisor by Angie. I had hardly finished setting up my request online when I received a call-back from Mario Alvarez, owner of ACE Services. The very next day, he came to my house, analyzed the issue and the cause, and gave me a verbal quote. That evening, I had a written proposal including his FL Licenses as Mold Assessor/Remediator and Asbestos Contractor. One week later he came to do the job in a punctual, professional, and safe manner and my closet looks clean and mold-less! If you need an experienced, knowledgeable, and personable mold-removal professional who prioritizes safety and neatness, Mario Alvarez is your man! Plus, he speaks perfect English and Spanish!"

"We did a large renovation with Art Remodeling and Construction they were great. The project entailed removing two structural walls, major foundation work, new kitchen, new bathroom. Straightforward and always upfront with costs/timing, they held our hands throughout the process, which was important for a bunch of newbies. . Highly recommend Art Remodeling and Construction"

"It went great! My first time remodeling. It went fairly smooth given my 32 yo home and it turned out beautifully. I supplied most of the materials and SBS supplied knowledgeable, skilled and professional tradesmen. They were always on time and were very respectful of my home. My job was small, but tedious. SBS was patient amd accommodating. SBS may soon remodel my master bathroom and my garage including painting the garage floor! I'm a VERY happy SBS customer. Thumbs up :)"

Asbestos Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Scraping off asbestos siding is extremely dangerous. When asbestos is inert, it does not pose a risk, but once disturbed, the fibers enter the air that you breathe and can cause irreparable damage. Professionals may scrape it off, but they will have more protective equipment and specialized tools that most homeowners do not have on hand.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned the use of asbestos pipe insulation in certain applications in 1975. It released further bans in 1989 and 2019. While asbestos pipe insulation was common from the 1930s to 1970s, its use fell off after the 1970s due to public concern and the EPA's actions.

Regulations require certified professionals for removals and disposal in compliance with local and federal guidelines, ensuring safety and legality.

In the 1980s, the use of asbestos in house siding materials underwent a significant decline, ultimately being phased out by the mid-1980s to early 1990s. This change was largely due to a growing awareness of the severe health risks associated with asbestos exposure, particularly its link to lung diseases and cancers. With increased public concern and regulatory agency involvement, building codes and regulations were updated to restrict the use of asbestos in construction materials. 

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
